In my mind, I am free. — Stephen Hawking

The cumulative weight of all mortal sins
past, present, and future

"Understand this, Your Majesty, there's been a lot of effort to control my life, but it hasn't come from books! Look a little further back! A kingdom that betrothed me to an unknown prince controlled my destiny. A Komizar who commandeered my voice controlled my destiny.

Central to Frege's philosophy was the assertion that truth is independent of human judgment. In his Basic Laws of Arithmetic he writes: "Being true is different from being taken to be true, whether by one or many or everybody, and in no case is it to be reduced to it. There is no contradiction in something's being true which everybody takes to be false. I understand by 'laws of logic' not psychological laws of takings-to-be-true, but laws of truth...they [the laws of truth] are boundary stones set in an eternal foundation, which our thought can overflow, but never displace. — Frege, Gottlob

It was a delicious meal
skim milk, wheat middlings, leftover pancakes, half a doughnut, the rind of a summer squash, two pieces of stale toast, a third of a gingersnap, a fish tail, one orange peel, several noodles from a noodle soup, the scum off a cup of cocoa, an ancient jelly roll, a strip of paper from the lining of the garbage pail, and a spoonful of raspberry jello. — E.B.
